Chapter 15: A Single Person Is a New Race

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“What kind of tremendous power is this…”

An indescribable feeling of suffocation spread among the humans. They were indescribably shocked by the scene before them.

The humans, who had been at the top of the food chain for a long time, simply could not accept this. Such a terrifying attack was actually caused by an ordinary beast.

“Roar…”

With a soft growl, the slaughter continued. Gray sped up and charged towards the mutated beasts, which were still rooted to the spot due to the shock, one after another..

“Crack, kacha…”

The sharp claws continued to tear apart their fragile bodies, and his tusks shattered their bodies. As for the steel whip-like tail, it casually whipped them away like a rubber ball.

“Rumble, rumble…”

Accompanied by a series of loud sounds, the mutated beasts on the field were all sent flying one by one.

The steel tail was the most terrifying ability that Gray currently possessed. Its strength was so great that it exceeded Gray’s original imagination.

Even the mutated sea turtle, which was at the peak of Level 3 and was extremely skilled in defense, did not dare to face this attack head-on.

As such, everyone could naturally imagine how terrifying the power of this attack was.

“According to my guess, the strength of my serious whip is at least five tons…”

The steel lizard revealed a human-like frivolous smile at the corner of his mouth. Then, it continued to transform into a killing machine, shuttling between the battlefield and wantonly harvesting the lives of these mutated beasts.

“Roar, roar, roar…”

A low roar, a mournful wail… All sorts of strange sounds echoed continuously in the battlefields.

However, these wails didn’t make Gray have any intention of stopping. Instead, it made Gray even more excited.

It was the same for humans.

Killing was something engraved in the genes. As for the nature of beasts…It was a massacre, which was also Gray’s favorite.

He longed for the scene of killing, but he also longed to personally harvest himself.

It was because, at this moment:

“Ding dong, it has been detected that the host is devouring the flesh and blood of a Level 3 mutated wild boar. Evolution points + 30…”

“Ding dong, it has been detected that the host is devouring the flesh and blood of a Level 2 Komodo giant lizard. Evolution Points + 20, bloodline increase by 1% …”

The increase in evolution points didn’t attract too much attention from Gray. Gray’s mind was completely focused on the notification at the end. The more he read, the more excited he became.

He could feel the blood in his entire body boiling.

The increasingly intense bloodline density caused Gray’s body to emit a white mist-like gas.

Under the contrast of the white mist, he became even more mysterious, terrifying, and dignified.

“This boiling feeling…”

Gray muttered suddenly. He then returned to his senses and felt something strange about his body.

He looked at his own body in the puddle and then at the battlefield.

The corpses lay quietly on the ground one after another. The methods of death were endless, and fresh blood dyed the ground.

There were even corpses whose blood had yet to cool down, whose bodies had yet to stiffen. Even the desire for life and the fear of death on their faces had yet to fade away.

And now, with a shift of his gaze, Gray looked at his strange body. His entire body had turned completely red, and the flesh and blood hidden beneath the scales seemed to have been roasted, constantly emitting a high temperature.

“It’s really roasted…”

With a stupefied look on his face, Gray truly did not feel the burning sensation of his body. This burning sensation was more like a feeling that came from deep within his bones.

The hot blood in his body was constantly burning and heating up. There was an indescribable boiling heat.

At this time, Gray seemed to have discovered a new continent. He noticed a new ability on the attribute panel and became excited.

[ Bloodline recovery: the silent and ancient bloodline of His will eventually be revived, the mythical snake of the world will also eventually descend (current recovery rate is 1%).]

After calming down, Gray stared at the additional attributes quietly. His gaze froze, not moving at all.

“Could this be…”

While in doubt, Gray looked at the corpse lying on the ground not far away,

it was the corpse of a mutated Komodo giant lizard. Originally, he was still considering whether he should slaughter his own kind.

However, when he was on top of it, his reasoning was mostly taken up by the bestial nature.

In fact, he had even unconsciously eaten the flesh and blood of his own race, extracting evolution points from these giant lizards.

However, what surprised him was that devouring the flesh and blood of his own race didn’t seem to be as simple as obtaining evolution points.

“Could it be that by continuously devouring my own race, I can purify my own hidden bloodline?”

He was somewhat stunned, and also puzzled.

Gray was not unfamiliar with the concept of bloodline. After all, he was born as a human in his previous life. There were descriptions of the term bloodline in all kinds of books. He still had some insights about the power of bloodline.

It was an extremely terrifying power. It was the key to the continuous survival of a race. It was something carved in the bones of a race.

And now, it seemed that his body was flowing with some indescribable blood of ‘his’.

“Could it really be the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon Race?”

While muttering to himself, Gray recalled the legend of the Komodo lizard previously.

It was known as the “living dinosaur.” Its own bloodline was an extremely ancient and terrifying existence in the Blue Planet back then…

And now, it had come to the era of Reiki recovery. Just as Gray had thought, that silent and ancient bloodline might be awakened by him once again.

However, the method of awakening this bloodline…

Slaughtering one’s own kind?

Gray narrowed his eyes slightly. Somehow he didn’t have the heart to do it.

He was still bound by the human morals he had learned in his previous life.

However, this was normal. His previous life had not been in vain for being a good person.

But on second thought, Gray felt somewhat relieved.

Did humans have less examples of killing each other because of benefits? World War I, World War II, and the colonization campaign. Even humans, who had intelligence at the top of the animal world, behaved the same, let alone animals.

And the Komodo giant lizards had had examples of cannibalism since ancient times.

And for someone like him, who had a soul with human intelligence and a strong body of a mutated giant lizard, he could neither be considered a human nor an ordinary animal…

To a certain extent, he was a monster, a monster full of contradictions.

Therefore, his race had always been single person.

As such, there was naturally no such thing as cannibalism slaughtering the Komodo giant lizards.

“As of now, I don’t belong to the human race nor the Komodo giant lizard. I am me, I am Gray!”

Thinking of this, Gray’s eyes kept flickering. He couldn’t stop thinking.

What was my race, and where was his future heading?
